Brief Description: Rivet Angle to Andair Fuel Valve Cover
There was about an 1/8" gap between the fuel valve cover and the leading edge of the top plate that the valve is fastened to. This plate came with a large tab angled upward that was designed to hold the manual elevator trim knob. Since I am going with electric trim, the plans said to cut this tab off. Unfortunately, this left the gap along the top leading edge next to the cover. I decided to fabricate and rivet a light 0.040 piece of 3/4 x 3/4 angle to the top forward edge of the cover box to fill the gap. The top plate has a much nicer finished look now.
